Karbo Pellets+

Karbo Pellets+ are the pellet form of our Karbo Flour product. Karbo Pellets+ are designed to provide the same protection as Karbo Flour, but in a more convenient form for distribution and consumption. The addition of the grain and forage products (alfalfa leaf meal) make the pellet form more palatable for many animals. They are especially appealing to grazing animals that enjoy picking at food particles. Karbo Pellets+, when used with Epic II CL (see product info), provide even greater protection for your animals and birds. Learn more.

What are Karbo Pellets+?(Pellet Form of Karbo Flour+)

The primary active ingredients in the Karbo Formula are mannan and glucan sugars. The mannan sugars contain oligosaccharides, which have proven, in animal field trials, to reduce diarrhea, increase food intake, increase ADG (average daily gain) and reduce feed costs.

Many pathogenic bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi and toxins in the GI tract, and the whole body, are attracted to and attach themselves to the mannan sugars. Once attached to the sugars, or oligosaccharides, they become inactive, cannot colonize, and are rafted out of the body.

The addition of the proteolytic enzyme CL fortifies the Karbo Pellets+ formula to bind ammonia released during protein and amino acid breakdown. High ammonia levels are toxic to bacteria necessary for complete digestion. The ammonia binding by the CL enzymatic fraction is reversible, and the ammonia release takes place when the level of ammonia present drops to a constant level. (Click here for more information about our product Epic II CL.)

In the digestive tract, the reversible binding of ammonia for amino acid synthesis can create an additional pool of ammonia for amino acid synthesis. This leads to bacterial growth, which creates a more constant and uniform supply of non-ammonia nitrogen with bacterial origin to the small intestine.
